Powers/Abilities: Flea had no particular fighting
abilities, but he did have the ear of the street, which allowed him to gain
information on pretty much everything that was going down.

History:
(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#5) - Luke Cage approached Flea for information about a
fake ambulance that had stolen the body of Frank Jenks. Flea gave him a
location, and insisted on $50 for it, but Cage told him he'd get the money only
if the information checked out. The address turned out to be a building next to
the operations of Black Mariah, whose agents spotted Cage snooping around next
door and ambushed them. Cage defeated them all, and when he next encountered
Flea he refused to pay him, believing he had been set up. However, Flea tricked
Jenks' widow into thinking Cage had told him she would pay him, which she did,
accusing Cage of being a snake for having manipulated her.

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#11) - Cage sought information on Señor
Suerte from Flea, who promised to get it for him, but then, still bitter over
his perceived mistreatment by Cage, he contacted Suerte and let him know Cage
was coming for him. In gratitude, Suerte gave him $500 credit at his casinos
with unlimited bar service, as long as he also followed his instructions to send
Cage into a trap, which Flea gladly did.

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#16 (fb)) - At a bar, Flea met
Broadway columnist Phil Fox, who got drunk and showed him about Dr. Noah
Burstein's experiments at Seagate prison, which contained evidence that could
send Luke Cage back to jail.

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#16 (fb) - BTS) - Based on what he
had learned in the journal, Flea began keeping tabs on Albert "Billy Bob"
Rackham.

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#16 (fb)) - Flea convinced Shades and
Comanche that they could join together with Cage on "something of interest."

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#15) - Cage came to Flea for
information on who had stolen Noah Burstein's journals. Flea led him to a liquor
store where Shades and Comanche were waiting for him.

(Luke Cage, Hero for Hire#16) - Flea told Cage how he had come
to work with Shades and Comanche, and how they would help him to rescue Claire
Temple from Rackham. In exchange, Flea apparently wished to join in a protection
racket with Shades and Comanche, with Cage serving as their personal superhero
to "protect" their customers, in order to allow them to compete with Bossman
Morgan, the head of the Harlem rackets.
Flea led the other three to the house where Rackham held
Temple, but they were all then attacked by Stiletto, son of Seagate's warden
Tyler Stuart, who wished vengeance for his father's losing his job. The roof
collapsed, and Flea got Claire to safety, while Cage carried out Shades and
Comanche and then defeated Stiletto.
When Shades and Comanche were taken away by the police, Flea
decided that he didn't want to risk his life by trying to blackmail Cage on his
own.

(Luke Cage, Power Man#18) - Cage came to Flea for information
on from whom Diamondback (Willis Stryker) had stolen the heroin to frame Cage,
sending him to prison. Flea learned that the drugs had come from Cornell
Cottonmouth, but he was discovered by them. He called Cage to meet him quickly,
but by the time Cage arrived, Cottonmouth had poisoned him, and he only had time
to tell Cage who had poisoned him before dying.
